There were so many birds that I have encountered for the first time.
There is a centre of Bear rehabilitation. When we interacted with Dr. Pranjit Basumatary sir who work for bear rehabilitation, we got to know so many new things about wild rescue, how they handle it, how they release these rescued bear, how we can be familiar with the animals call as well as other rescued animals.
In the reserve we met Mr. Ohe Taiyam a nyishi man from nearest village at Seijosa. He invited us for tea at his place. When we went to Ohe's place, we saw a traditional nyishi house. We were so excited. This was my 3rd visit to local community's home. We were amazed by their hospitality. We got to know so many amazing and wild stories of Pakke Tiger Reserve.
